JavaFX, Duke Potato

Silveira — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 19:04:01 +0000

Do you know the toy Mr. Potato Head? Now meet the Java Potato.

Duke images here from previous dukes I posted and other images from Open Clipart Project.

Java Web Start:

The code:

package dukepotato;
 
import javafx.application.Frame;
import javafx.application.Stage;
import javafx.scene.CustomNode;
import javafx.scene.Node;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.input.MouseEvent;
import javafx.scene.geometry.Circle;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.image.ImageView;
import javafx.scene.image.Image;
 
public class Img extends ImageView{
    public  attribute content: Node[];
    public  attribute src: String;
 
    private attribute endX = 0.0;
    private attribute endY = 0.0;
    private attribute startX = 0.0;
    private attribute startY = 0.0;
 
    override attribute translateX = bind endX;
    override attribute translateY = bind endY;
    override attribute blocksMouse = true;
 
    init {
        image = Image {
            url: "{__DIR__}/{src}"
        }
    }
 
    override attribute onMousePressed = function(e:MouseEvent):Void {
        startX = e.getDragX()-endX;
        startY = e.getDragY()-endY;
    }
 
    override attribute onMouseDragged = function(e:MouseEvent):Void {
        endX = e.getDragX()-startX;
        endY = e.getDragY()-startY;
    }
}
 
var dukesimages = ["duke1.png", "duke2.png", "duke3.png", "duke4.png"];
var dukes = for (image in dukesimages){
    Image {
        url: "{__DIR__}/{image}"
    }
}
var index = 0;
var duke = ImageView {
    x: 200, y:170
    image: bind dukes[index];
    onMouseClicked: function( e: MouseEvent ):Void {
        index = (index + 1) mod sizeof dukesimages;
    }
}
 
var hat = Img { src: "hat.png", x: 370 }
var partyhat = Img { src: "party_hat.png", x: 160, y: 5 }
var cap = Img { src: "cap.png", x: 230, y: 10 }
var cake = Img { src: "cake.png", x: 526, y: 190 }
var glove = Img { src: "glove.png", x: 338, y: 363 }
var baseball = Img { src: "baseball.png", x: 548, y:373 }
var pencil = Img { src: "pencil.png", x: 451, y: 365 }
var camera = Img { src: "camera.png", x: 125, y: 380 }
var coffee = Img { src: "coffee.png", x: 541, y: 114 }
var burger = Img { src: "burger.png", x: 542, y: 282 }
var diamond = Img { src: "diamond.png", x: 243, y: 383 }
var pliers = Img { src: "pliers.png", x: 20, y: 368 }
var rubikcube = Img { src : "rubikcube.png", x: 37, y: 295 }
var syringe = Img { src: "syringe.png", x: 35, y: 245 }
var hourglass = Img { src: "hourglass.png", x: 35, y: 127 }
var adventurehat = Img { src: "adventurehat.png", x: 8, y:30 }
var tie = Img { src: "tie.png", x: 547, y:35 }
 
Frame {
    title: "Duke Potato"
    width: 640
    height: 480
    closeAction: function() {
        java.lang.System.exit( 0 );
    }
    visible: true
 
    stage: Stage {
        content: [duke, hat, partyhat, cake, adventurehat, cap, glove,
            baseball, pencil, camera, coffee, burger, diamond,
            pliers, rubikcube, syringe, hourglass, tie]
    }
}

Lines 14 to 42 is the same dragging approach I showed in the post Draggable Nodes, but this time creating a class that inherits the behavior of ImageView.
Lines 44 to 57 is the Duke that changes when you click on it. It cycles over the dukesimages list.
Lines 59 to 75 is just instantiations of all toys and objects we will use to dress the Duke. Look how easier was to create and place a image.
Lines 78 to the end is just creating a Frame and putting all elements on it.

JavaFX, Draggable Nodes

Silveira — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 19:18:34 +0000

One thing that I like a lot to do with JavaFX is draggable objects. Due to some recent changes in the JavaFX syntax my old codes for that are no longer working. Joshua Marinacci from Sun’s JavaFX engineering team and other guys from the JavaFX community gave me some tips. Here some strategies I’m using for making draggable nodes in JavaFX.

In this first example, a simple draggable ellipse.

video url: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAJHH-mPLaQ

import javafx.application.*;
import javafx.scene.paint.*;
import javafx.scene.geometry.*;
import javafx.input.*;
 
Frame {
    width: 300, height: 300, visible: true
    stage: Stage {
        content: [
            Ellipse {
                var endX = 0.0; var endY = 0.0
                var startX = 0.0; var startY = 0.0
                centerX: 150, centerY: 150
                radiusX: 80, radiusY: 40
                fill: Color.ORANGE
                translateX: bind endX
                translateY: bind endY
                onMousePressed: function(e:MouseEvent):Void {
                    startX = e.getDragX()-endX;
                    startY = e.getDragY()-endY;
                }
                onMouseDragged: function(e:MouseEvent):Void {
                    endX = e.getDragX()-startX;
                    endY = e.getDragY()-startY;
                }
            }
        ]
 
    }
}

When you need to create a group of draggable objects, you can try thie approach of a draggable group like this. Inside on it, you can put whatever you want.

        }
    }
 
    override attribute onMousePressed = function(e:MouseEvent):Void {
        startX = e.getDragX()-endX;

One more example, using the same class DragGroup, we can put multiple nodes using lists.

JavaFX: Color picker

Silveira — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 01:56:01 +0000

An simple color picker that can be also used as a gadget.

import javafx.ui.*;
import javafx.ui.canvas.*;

var colors = [red:Color, orange:Color, yellow:Color, green:Color,
     cyan:Color,blue:Color, magenta:Color, gray:Color];

var chosenColor: Paint;
chosenColor = black:Color;

var x = 120;
var y = 70;

Canvas{
    content: Group{
        transform: bind translate(x,y)
        content: [Star{
            points: sizeof colors
            rin: 30
            rout: 50
            fill: bind chosenColor
            onMouseDragged: operation(e) {
                x += e.localDragTranslation.x;
                y += e.localDragTranslation.y;
            }
        },
        foreach (i in [1..sizeof colors]) Circle {
            var: self

Draggable and Growable Ball in JavaFX

Two simple JavaFX code handling onMouseDragged event.

        onMouseReleased: operation(e){

}

You can test this examples with thhe JavaFX Pad or using Netbeans with the JavaFX Plugin.
